When I installed OpenVAS, I was prompted for a password, however the prompt errored out. I have installed OpenVAS and it is working properly, however I cant get in as admin (I created a new user and that works fine).
I've tried googling how to reset admin password, recover admin password, change the access of a user to admin, but to no avail.
Greenbone Security Assistant is version 4.0.
OpenVAS is version 6 I believe (I just installed it today)
Host OS is Kali Linux.
